The picnic at Coryville, last Satur-
urday, was one of the pleasantest ever
attended in this county. r. NJ Bal.
lard, the jolly Superintendent of the
Mount Cory, had the ground near the
North Star mine cleared of brush and
the picnickers found spot which was
simply perfect. Early in the morning
there was smart rain, but tent that
was on the ground protected the ladies
and lunch while the men stood around
and enjoyed the scenery. The rain
however, lasted just long enough to
cool the air and then there was per.
feet day for open air sport. The Cory
VILE people were out in force and ex-
erted themselves to good purpose in
entertaining the visitors. Everything
was ready for immediate fun and there
was nothing to do but eat drink and
be merry. All the boys in Coryyiile
who were not on shift Joined The party
and everybody was obliged 10 have a
good time. The free slide was for a
time quite feature and a number of
gentlemen found healthy bisters on
their hands and what tailor would
call blisters on the widest part of heir
pants. The. ladies Of Coryvllle were
also efficient assistants in the general
gaity and were walchful that every
body should have good time. Ever
since the camp became prominent il
has borne reputation for hospitality
which was well maintained last Satur-
duy. There can be no dispute as 10
the ground being the most excellent
picnic ground IN this part of the State.
High in the mountains the alr is cool
ard pleasant while the pine trees, wild
flowers and running stream make a
most delightful scene. The members
ofthe Circus Com pany were nearly all
there and exhibited their skill in
ground aud lofty tumbling. The lug
OF war was one of the features and the
strongest crowd always got away
with the rope.
During the whole day there were
but two casualties one gentleman lost

through having eaten 80 much dinner
that he had no room. Several people
were at times observed looking tor
woOdtlcks and it wns feared for "a
time that some were lost but they
found them after they reached home.
AS before remarked Coryville Is noted
for its generous hospitality and every
social ga,neing ever held there

! Dennis Watts. oue of Nevada s most prominent colOred citizens and independent farmers, was in town Friday, and called and look ed through our office. He owns several hundred acres of good inn proved land, in the lower part Of the county, and is well-tO-do-has never given mortgage in his life. He says he has always attended strictly to Iris own business and worked hard. No wonder he sue ceeded. We commend his exam pie as worthy of following. The government has not pressed (0 him down. t
 Last week by an oversight of ours, d personal item appeared in the Emmett Etchings as to Henry Craven, written by our correspon. dent "DamOn." It Is our custom to leave out all such things, but, as said above, this one slipped our notice. We learn an injustice and misrepresentation was done by the item, which we regret very much. Like other mortals, we are too, liable to make mistakes. We condemn in unmeasured terms the action of Damon, in this per sonal a'lusion. And here We wish again to say to our correspondents to leave out all rough jokes calcu. lated to wound feelings, and all personal attacks on any one.
 Last week MT. Smith, of Hemp. stead, opened wine room in Prescott, keeping open several days and selling native wine by the quart. This stirred up our people, and the Marshall arrested Mir. Smith, and the wine room clos ed until trial could be had, for failure to procure town license of 420O. Doubtless he will also be prosecuted for violation of State laws, as Judge c. F. Mitchell is reported as saying no native or other wine can be sold in less quantity than five gallons, in d prohibition county. Our people say if the sale of wine can't be stopped, prohibition is of no use, and other vinous liquors had as well be dispensed. .. #.

We had the pleasure on Monday last, and again on yesterday, of visi,in. the medicine camps of the band of wichita Hali"ns that have hcen located ror the past ten days, in the North Eastern part of our town.o This band of Italians Is m- der the supervision of the celebra- ted Medicine Chief Elkhorn, and is managed by the noted Indian scout, Capt. R. II. Hurley, known all over the western country AIS, "Wichita Bob." On Monday the crowd of people about their camps equalled, if it did not exceed, that upon the grounds occupied by the show, and it was all that Capt
 Hurley and his assistants could do, to supply the demands for the various remedies manufactured by them. On yesterday the crowd was not so large as on Monday, but was large enough to keep all hands comfortably busy The tNiNS ChSStSu " thNSt iCH'N''NNs are truly wonderful, as testified to by numbers of the best citizens of our town and surrounding coun- try, and we have no hesitancy whatever, in recommending our friends and patrons who may be in need of medical treatment, to call on Capt. Hurley and give his medicine d fair r,tri,l. These med icines have, after a thorough trial given such universal satisfaction that Mrs. Garland who is we'll and favorably known to all our old cit izens, has applied for anl secured the agency for this sale in Nevada county, and after the departure of the Indian camps, they can be pro. cured of her. The Indians will however, remain until the first of next week.
